The wine has a dark ruby color and a powerful and fragrant
mix of black cherries, herbs, potpourri and flower blossoms. On the palate the
wine has flavors of red and black berries with a hint of sweet oak vanillin.
The moderate tannins combined with the relatively high acidity give the wine a
tight structure which additional bottle aging will resolve. This is definitely
a wine that is at its best when paired with food such as grilled meats and
spicy Mediterranean fare.
